I think you can not do that with only one query using annotate. You could do it manually in python using the code above including the additional filter on comment_approved and merge all (entry, number) pairs with Entry.objects.all() using 0 for entries which are not listed in your first query. Since you won't display thousands of entries at the same time, this should not be a problem.
You could also use extra to insert a subquery into your sql statement. See.: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/ For example: (just the idea) entries = Entry.objects.all().extra(select={"approved_comment_count": "SELECT Count(*) FROM Comment WHERE Comment.Entry_id = Entry.id AND Comment.is_published = True AND Comment.approved = 'Y'"}) Cheers, Thomas --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
